Just in case you don't have the market available to get an app installer, there's also a non-market way : 1. install the android sdk (google it) 2. connect your phone to your PC 3. go to settings --> sd card & phone storage and touch unmount (eject SD card)...while you're in settings check "Unkown Sources" in settings --> applications 4. now open a command shell(start --> run --> cmd on Windows) and type : adb install <location of .apk file><apk file name> Hope this helps.
